What Causes Bad Smell For Urine?
I am a male, and my urine smells like tuna sometimes. Rather more frequently recently. I ve also started drinking more coffee. Could this be related? Also... My stomach cannot handle fatty or spicy foods. I m overweight, and I wondered if maybe my stomach is trying to prevent digestion of fatty substances to prevent further weight gain? This is, of course, impossible; but it really feels that way.

Hello,
I think you better do a urine analysis and uroculture because an infection may cause urine to smell bad. Also, you can tell me if you are taking any drugs or supplement because some of them can make urine smell differently.
Hope I have answered your query. Let me know if I can assist you further.
Take care

Dr Olgeta Xhufka, General & Family Physician
